SeasightPublished: Wed, 01 Feb 2006 09:00:00 -0500 Seasight The tawny stem all flaunting and rich,Strewn on the rocks by a reckless hand; A treasure nourished by tide and spray And taking root in the barren sand. The garden of stones and stranded shells Tended by shallow wash of the sea, Admired by gulls with their salt-air cries As they swoop to perch on the driftwood quay. The blossom waving on colorless beach, Shocking with scarlet the sun-blanched shore; Lustrous petals from supple silk cut, But leaping with flames at its frankincense core. - Rebekah Curry
